Pasquale stopped 13 shots in the third period in picking up his fifth win of the season and third in his last five starts. Alex Burmistrov and Spencer Machacek notched a pair of assists each while Kevin Clark scored his first goal of the season. Paul Postma and Carl Klingberg also scored for St. John's (10-9-0-1), which moved into a tie for first place in the Atlantic Division with the idle Manchester Monarchs.

The IceCaps once again found success with the man advantage. After going 4-for-10 in last weekend's two-game set with the Providence Bruins - including a 3-for-6 showing on Sunday - St. John's scored twice more in seven chances, including a pair of power play markers 10 seconds apart halfway through the final frame. Postma's goal at 10:18 of the third was followed by Klingberg's eventual game-winner at 10:28.

After a scoreless first period, the teams traded goals in the second, with the Phantoms striking first. Jamie Akeson took a slap shot that hit Harry Zolnierczyk and went off Pasquale's pad and in, giving the home side a 1-0 lead at 13:15 of the middle frame.

St. John's tied it just minutes later on Clark's first of the season. Burmistrov burst into the Phantoms zone and was denied on a nice save by Munroe, but Clark was there to deposit the rebound and knot the game at one heading into the third period.

The IceCaps forged ahead on a two-man advantage midway through the third frame after Adirondack was whistled for a pair of minor penalties. Burmistrov teed up the puck for Postma back at the point and the reigning IceCaps' MVP blasted a one-timer through traffic and past Munroe to give the IceCaps a 2-1 lead.

Then, just 10 seconds later on a five-on-four advantage, Machacek sped down the right side and swung a pass in front to a streaking Klingberg, who redirected the puck into the net for a two-goal St. John's lead.

Adirondack closed the gap to one with 4:33 to go in regulation. Erik Gustafsson's wrist shot from the point went along the ice and was deflected by Rob Bordson, making it 3-2 with just minutes left to play.

The IceCaps would shut the door down the stretch, holding on for their second straight win overall and second in a row on the road.
